Surges are large, very brief and potentially destructive due to sudden increase in voltage. They are the secondary effects of Lightning strikes from a kilo-metre or more, away.
Structural Lightning Protection alone will NOT prevent Surges damage.
Effective Protection for the Sensitive Electronic Equipment contained in a cell site can be achieved by fitting Surge (transient overvoltage) Protectors on all electrically conductive lines entering or leaving the base-station.
Mains Power supplies
Protect the incoming mains power supply with a range of protectors to suit most applications.
- It has very low let-through voltage between all sets of conductors
- Suitable for 120V, 208V and 415V supplies
- Repeated protection in lightning intense environments
- Low current in-line and high current parallel-wired
- Maintenance free and easy to install
- Long lifetime (most product 20 year predicted)
Data and Telephone lines
Protect single and multiple twisted pair, three-wire & telephone lines with a wide range of protectors
- Low ‘Let-through’ voltage between all lines
- Suitable for 6V, 15V, 30V and 50V data lines
- Telephone protectors suitable for jack plug, RJ11 and RJ45 connections
- Low in-line resistance to minimize reduction in signal strength
Coaxial RF systems
Use on coaxial systems to protect RF transmitter and receiver systems, including electronics location at the antenna or dish
- Suitable for RF systems using coaxial cables at frequencies between 50MHz and 2.7GHz
- Superior transient protection to both Gas Discharge Tube and Quarter Wave Stub based protectors
- Low attenuation and near unity Voltage Standing
Wave Ratio (VSWR) over a wide range of frequencies ensure the protectors do not impair system performance.
